Question 1

can a brain aneurysm (in neck or brain) cause tingling in lower arm and leg (right side of body) mostly at night upon early ams? pain in right side back of neck and head at times too. right ear runs too?

Accepted Answer

: Not feasible to attribute ALL your problems to the "aneurysm", but depending upon location, and size, of  aneurysm, a potential for the tingling focally  on right side could be due to vascular flow issues.  Would evaluate your symptoms further with a neurosurgical consult, as it is best to be cautious and safe.

Accepted Answer

Advice: Although I feel very unfamiliar with what is occurring in your situation, I find myself concerned with your description.  Sounds like your doctor needs to confirm a diagnosis, and difficult cases may require numerous tests.  If you have lack of confidence, get a second opinion.  Regardless, you need answers and treatment to reverse these troublesome symptoms.

Question 3

what can cause numerous subcortical brain lesions on mri? ive also had weakness on my right side in leg and arm which comes and goes. hyper reflexes and clonus during knee reflex. positive babinski sign right side. expressive aphasia. fatigue

Accepted Answer

Brain stroke.: One possibility is a brain stroke, the patient may present with risk factors like diabetes, hypertension or an arrhythmia.

Question 4

im having pain in my arm and leg on my right side only?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: It could be many causes, such as muscle strain, tendinitis, etc. You should see a doctor if symptom persist.

Question 5

my leg and arm on my right side are swollen what causes this.?

Accepted Answer

Doctor can evaluate: In order to swell up just on one side, there has to be more blood or more fluid in that side of the body. The primary care doctor might check to see if there is a blood clot or blood flow problem, if there is a problem in the nerves or nerve signals to that side of the body, if there is fluid in the tissues that is settling into one side of the body due to gravity or lymphatic blockage, etc...

Question 6

should your weaker side feel completely different than your dominant side? sometimes my left side (arm and leg) feels weak and just weird all around.

Accepted Answer

Only slightly: U are right hand dominant so the left hand can feel clumsy and uncoordinated.  Try to maximize your ability to use both hands.  I never regretted learning to write with both right and left hands!! @Ambidexter

Question 7

can a pinched nerve in neck cause lhermitte's down the back, arm and leg on one side?

Accepted Answer

Neck pain: No , you should be evaluated by a doc asap and may require MRI of neck. The problem could be from spinal cord involvement.

Question 8

every few days to weeks i'm getting tingling down my left side (face, arm, leg). 8 times in total, today it's the same but on right. am i have tia's?

Accepted Answer

Anxiety: Numbness like thus is how your body is experiencing your stressed breathing. You are either breathing too shallow or too rapidly. These symptoms are a sign that you are not managing your anxieties well.

Question 9

weakness or numbness of the face, arm, or leg on one side of the body.

Accepted Answer

Neurologist: This warrants an evaluation by a neurologist. Appropriate testing will be done. Concern is for entities like a stroke or lesion of the  cerebral cortex in the opposite side of the brain. Multiple sclerosis is a possibility but usually symptoms and signs occur in scattered parts of the bodies in that disorder.

Question 10

i get an intense burning in my left side when i bend my left leg, or raise my left arm. it has been about two days.

Accepted Answer

Get neurology eval: The fact that you get the same sensation of left sided burning when you flex the leg OR raise the left arm is very difficult to explain off the top of my head from a purely anatomical view. You need to be seen and examined by a neurologist to get a better handle as to what is going on. It may also be a non-organic problem but that would come later after everything else checked out.
